Monday Mode ☆ Meridian 110 Handbags
I met Starlet through blogging. She’s a fashion blogger living in the Bay Area in California. She has a cute blog called “Can you come home“. We actually took an online blogging class Blogging Your Way taught by the decor8 founder, Holly Becker, and A Creative Mint founder, Leslie Shewring. By the way, if you are looking for a course to learn about blogging, I highly recommend this class. We didn’t find each other till later through other source though.
She and her brother founded a handbag brand Meridian 110. She told me about her new business and I offered her to take photos of her new line. I’m an amateur photographer, but I do love styling, so I offered my unskilled photography and styling to her as a friend.
I had a chance to look at her products in person for taking photos. All I can say is that they are absolutely beautiful! I love products that integrate the tradition in a modern context. Starlet designed these purses using the traditional batik from Indonesia which can go well with any type of outfit. I photographed them at one of my favorite places in Jakarta, KOI Kemang Gallery. I thought that the contemporary gallery with furniture and the handbags would make a great match.

Sweet Starlet sent me and my girls necklaces as a gift. The first one is mine and the second one is my second daughter’s. There is a blue one which my older one received, but not in these photos. I have used mine many times. It’s a fun piece of jewelry to wear! Thanks, Starlet!

Love Starlet ( she has been a very supportive blogging friend) and also love her bags. will def. worth to check it out.
Your photography skill is near professional level Kaho! Always enjoyable to see your photos! I’m interested in that blogging class you mentioned. I’m a super beginners blogger, but I always believe in starting right. Do you think it’s suitable for me? But I’m hopeless in photography. LOL
Sure! I really enjoyed the Blogging Your Way Class because it has full of information that is very helpful with setting your own goal and also learn about yourself. I found the lessons I learned through this class very important in order to find a vision and directions for your blog. You don’t have to like photography! I did learn some very helpful basic skills for photography through this class. Thanks for stopping by!!
So excited! Will wait for their next class in feb/march.. This e-learning thing is a very convenient way to learn from experts across the globe. The experience alone will be valuable, not to mention the amount of information I can get without needing to go anywhere. :)
And the handbags are gorgeous! I’m checking out their blog right now.
